How do i save my map on the map editor

Post by Emasher »

this is probaly a stupid question but i recently started playing wesnoth (mac version) and then i started playing around with the map making application.

then when i tried to save my map so i could work on it again later i was unable to because i work in a standard account and cannot right to the library, and if i change the path it tells me there is alredy a file with the same name here (so how do i rename the file)

so how do i save my maps

Preferences-> Wesnoth -> maps.
Rename the file by finding the icon and re-write its title.

Ok, the name of my map is "8p_-_bro".
The picture will show you the path to find where is your map. One you've found it, rename it the way you want.
Then, open the editor, choose "load a map", and the name you've given should appear.

Then why don't you ask the admin of the mac to let you have access to his session?
